“My journey for yellow belt eligibility was relatively straightforward. I received the support of Mihir Shah who was amazing in making the process as clear and simple to understand as possible. Overall, it’s been an enjoyable experience and I would encourage anyone who has an idea that they believe will make people’s lives easier or could improve the customer experience to get involved” -  Jordan Bate
